   3. Shouldn't typecodes look more like real types than strings, sort of
      like exceptions?  

	   >>> b.typecode()
	   'l'
      vs.
	   >>> b.typecode()
	   LongInteger  or whatever.

Definitely. Especially now that we have the stuff in Precision.py
for specifying types, it should be used consistently wherever
possible.
